## What it does

- Custom exercises: any name, any combination of reps, weight, time and distance. No fixed exercise catalogue.
- Routines and weekly planner: group exercises into reusable routines and place them on training days.
- Personalised start: on first launch the user picks what they train (strength, calisthenics, running, cycling, climbing, yoga and mobility, team sports, something else). Strainup prepares a starter set of exercises and routines, and the user swipes to keep or drop each exercise. The step can be skipped.
- Sharing: send an exercise or a routine by link or QR code; the recipient imports it in one tap.
- During a workout: Apple Watch app, Live Activities on the lock screen (current set, rest timer), home screen widgets, rest timer, timed sets that advance automatically, reordering exercises mid-session.
- Progress: workout history and streaks.
- Reminders on planned training days.
- Light and dark themes.

## Good fit for

People who want to track training that does not fit a standard gym app: calisthenics and street workout, hybrid training, running combined with strength, climbing and hangboard sessions, mobility routines, team sport conditioning, or coaches and friends sharing routines.
